Orinoco Flow

I’ve always rather liked Enya. That first album was something special.

Three official videos from Enya's first self-titled album.....

I have the self-titled, Watermark, and Shepherd Moons albums, plus Paint the Sky with Stars on a mix of CDs and one cassette somewhere around the house (or actually, I think I lost one of those CDs when I got rid of a car). And I've heard The Memory of Trees (took it out from the library in the 90s). I haven't really listened to Enya much in many years, but I used to enjoy Enya a lot. My favourite album of hers was the self-titled, which reminded me of the related Clannad. "Robin, Robin, the hooded man."

I can't easily do a proper list now as it's been so long, but "Caribbean Blue", "Aldebaran", "Triad: St. Patrick / Cu Chulainn / Oisin", "The Celts", To Go Beyond","Orinoco Flow" and "March of the Celts" might all be amongst my faves of what I know, and perhaps "Storms In Africa" as well.

Th first song I remember hearing of hers was "Orinoco Flow" when I was living in Cairns, Australia -- it has some sentimental attachment. Enya was one of the rare music things that I introduced my wife to that she liked (that and Kitaro).

Four official videos from the Shepherd Moons album:-

I quite liked the music to series 'The Celts' but apart from that.. hmm.. not my thing. Apparently she owns a big chunk of Donegal (North western Ireland) ;);) But I think the Brennan family are pretty big and long established there..

Two official videos from the Day Without Rain album:-

Shephard Moons is a great album. Unfortunately that's the only one I have heard by her.

Unfortunately that's the only one I have heard by her.   If you like Enya's Shepherd Moons album, then there's a good chance you'll like her other albums too, as they're all up to the same consistently high standard. I'd recommend Enya's compilation album, Paint the Sky with Stars, as a good starting point, which also includes the song, Paint the Sky with Stars, which doesn't appear on any other Enya album.   Here's another couple of official Enya videos, this time from the "And Winter Came" album:-   1. Trains and Winter Rains     2. White is in the Winter Night
